WASHINGTON – In a speech eulogizing Sen. John McCain on Wednesday, Sen. Jeff Flake echoed calls by the late senator for civility in politics.

“Now, as we go forward, let us remember thy humble servant with gladness and cheerfulness. To answer his call to summon the better angles of our nature. To see and appreciate the humanity in our opponents. To more freely forgive, so that we might be forgiven,” Flake (R-Ariz.) said at a memorial service for McCain (R-Ariz.) at the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix.
